The notoriously deliberative Miller admits that some of the problem was "self-inflicted." He says he hadn't seen the film on a big screen until last Thursday, and he agrees that it was overwhelming.

Ten minutes later, I'm in a one-on-one chat with Amdoc4. I ask him one of my standard test questions: "Why don't my HDL and LDL numbers add up to my total cholesterol number?" And he answers, correctly, that there are other factors like VLDL...
